Mermaid Hairstyles

Make a Splash in Sexy Goddess Mermaid Hair

Actress Darryl Hannah was perhaps the most memorable mermaid maiden of the sea in the movie Splash. The leggy blond played opposite Tom Hanks, whose character—a mortal man—falls in love with her and her lovely long mane. For a mermaid -inspired look, go soft and sensual with full-bodied waves that cascade around your shoulders and mimic the motion of the ocean, or play up the natural volume in your hair by using a curling iron to craft sexy, sassy spiral curls.

Be a mermaid of mystery by creating a veil of hair which you can peek out from behind. Allow the front pieces of your hair to flow freely around your face and achieve movement by setting long bangs in large Velcro rollers . For a modern take on mermaid hair, try an innovative kink. Part long hair down the center and keep it sleek and straight, except for crimped ends. The unexpected texture adds a funky twist to sea goddess hair. Don’t be afraid to try a warm copper or gorgeous crimson hair color like Ariel in The Little Mermaid. A color depositing shampoo can give your hair a temporary red tint. A platinum wig with blue streaks is a tad more eccentric for sirens who dare to be the life of the (Halloween) party. --Stephanie Simons
